Mr. Speaker, today I rise to congratulate the NDSU Bison football team for winning the FCS National Championship. On January 11, NDSU defeated James Madison University 28-20 in a thrilling game that came down to the final seconds. Bison quarterback Trey Lance racked up 166 yards on the ground during the game and finished the season with 28 touchdowns and zero interceptions. He is the first freshman ever to win the Walter Payton Player of the Year Award and the Jerry Rice National Freshman of the Year Award. Bison safety James Hendricks intercepted a pass on the goal line to ice the game and ensure another Bison National Championship. They finished the season 16-0, the first NCAA team to do so since Yale in 1884. During this unprecedented run, NDSU has won eight championships in 9 years and compiled a record of 128-8. They have lost only eight games in 9 years, and they have defeated five FBS schools along the way, two of which were ranked at the time they played NDSU. Congratulations to the players, coaches, and fans of the most dominant college football program in this country. And a special happy birthday to Bison fan Jessica Unruh. ____________________
